[j-nsp] Directed/targeted broadcast on EX-series

Hi all,

I'm looking at enabling targeted broadcasts on specific edge VLANs to
support Wake-on-LAN.

It looks like there aren't any knobs to control the behaviour:

admin at switch# set interfaces vlan unit 100 family inet targeted-broadcast ?
Possible completions:
  <[Enter]>            Execute this command
+ apply-groups         Groups from which to inherit configuration data
+ apply-groups-except  Don't inherit configuration data from these groups
  |                    Pipe through a command
{master:0}[edit]

Is there any way to control which source IPs can send targeted
broadcasts, or is it as it seems -- i.e. that it's all or nothing?

The "forward-and-send-to-re" and "forward-only" knobs to control
forwarding aren't there on my JUNOS EX boxes. Does anyone know what
the behaviour is on EX-series?

Cheers,
Dale
